The area has long been a lack of parking Spaces, ground roads occupied parking and other multiple traffic problems. Starting from the actual functional requirements of the project, the GWP team combined the innovative design concept with the overall image of the new urban landmark, striving to solve the parking congestion problem in the area while creating a convenient and comfortable traffic experience for urban commuters. Create a new place in the city where people can stop.

The concept of this project is inspired by the unique winding water veins in the water town of Dongguan and the core location of “one heart and two axes” where the project is located. It is proposed that the two extended urban main roads converge as a dynamic ribbon of flowing water, which reorganizes, sorts, twists and constructs the disorderly parking situation in the surrounding areas into the space and skin language of parking buildings. Organize the vehicle action line with the trend of infinite flow and rotation; Thus, the two dynamic curves spiral up and meet to form the parking building as a whole, like the architectural image of urban sculpture.

The design of the project uses the unique car flow line of the parking building as the traction force to generate the volume through the continuous circulation of the building. Finally, it is optimized and deformed with the geometric shape of the site to achieve a pure and simple architectural form. The continuous and circular facade “ribbon” runs through every corner of the building, giving rise to a series of rich and diverse spatial forms, and visually creating an architectural language that is integrated with the surrounding urban environment from inside to outside — enjoying tranquility while respecting and enhancing the value of the surrounding environment.

The project is nearing completion and is expected to be put into use in the middle of this year.
